Cool. I wonder if there's something about the Model 12s and extraction in .308. Savage just sent new extractor parts, I'm gonna give'm a try.
I haven't tried it with the .223 barrel and bolt parts installed but it seems to eject new ammo and sized cases fine. I guess I'm guilty of borrowing trouble.
I'm familiar with Jim, he sold me my rifle but I didn't know he had .300 Whisper barrels.
Thanks,
Paul
